I decided to not be lazy and share with you some photos. Although you would have seen them on my fb. We left for the airport at 515am to catch the 7ish flight and reached the land of smiles 2hrs later. Was stuck in the airport for a while as my bro was trying to get the roaming card. It eventually didn't work and he wasted his S$8 (I think), with no opportunity to fb or tweet. I bought a sim card at 99baht and it only lasted 2 smses and a call. For my last few trips, I would arrange for two-way airport transfer but I heard the prices have gone up a lot nowadays and was told to get a metered cab instead. It costs us 350baht and return was 400baht. I booked us a proper hotel this time because Mummy wanted it. Little did we know that the hotel we were staying in - Baiyoke Sky, is the tallest building in Thailand. Bro took the bigger bed because he said I get to sleep on one back home. But I'm sharing with one who takes up a lot of space! Doesn't matter anyway because I don...

Of not understanding what the locals were talking about. Of avoiding food WITHOUT (smelly) mint leaves. Of being a lazy tourist. Of crazy traffic. Of constant horning. Of many other stuff.... I'm back in the good old systematic Singapore. Just 4 days. And I miss almost everything here. Tell you more later :)

How nice it would be if one can travel (for leisure of course) every other month or better still, every other week... Ho Chi Minh tomorrow till Sunday. And exactly 2 months to the trip :) Today's a crazy day... I'm glad I have this little break. Will be back for more updates.

The last family trip we had was 15 years ago and only to Genting! Needless to say, this trip made us all excited. Mum & Dad seldom travel. Almost anywhere is fine. Bro & I were looking forward to the shopping. Especially since the last trip wasn't erm too good. BUT, I don't think I'll be doing another family trip soon. At least not to Bangkok. There were frustrations from time to time and it didn't quite live up to my expectation. Oh well, at least we tried. I wanted to complete this entry with photos but I suddenly feel damn lazy. Check out the pics on facebook will ya? Just want to highlight a particular incident. Be wary of any stranger who approaches you. I let my guard down when a harmless looking, Cantonese speaking old man approached us to strike a conversation. He had wanted to get S$60 from us to buy train tickets home because he was robbed at Chinatown the night before. He even flashed out his Singapore passport to make his story convincing. Fortunatel...

So much so that I feel like sabotaging everything for once and show you I ALSO cannot handle it. So that I'm not expected to do this and that, I can just be average. Tell me, what's the point of sharing the same title yet very likely getting lesser?! Why is it that when you are below average, you are more likely to be accepted or forgiven when you screw things up because well, you're known to be below average. And when you are supposedly good, no one cares until you make one mistake. Just once and people start pointing fingers, all these while taking for granted that because you are supposedly good, you are not supposed to go wrong. There's only so much shit I can and will take. I can also show you how I 'cannot' manage and happily lead an 'average' life. Thankfully for the next break. But is it enough....?

22 tops. 2 dresses. 3 (home) shorts. 3 spag tops (to pair with the translucent tops). 2 (home) tees. S$400 gone. Would have been more but mummy paid for some. Phew... New work clothes! Yipee. More updates later... because I only took 5 pics with my camera.. haha.

1. Post-it pads You can't recycle them and I don't trust that they stick forever so what if an important note drops? Once you write on the first piece, you have to tear it off before you can write on and use the second piece. Troublesome. 2. Bean sprouts, spring onions, parsley, tofu Actually point 2 makes 4 items so there are 5. That's all for now.

记得小时候总是很喜欢坐你的车，也很羡慕那三姐妹总是有爸爸载。 当时的我很享受和大家挤在你车里因为又可以去你家住或可以和她们再一起多一会儿。 现在长大了，那辆车没了，你也转行了。 可是我还是有机会坐到你的车或的士。 哈哈，真的是从小坐你的顺风车到大！ 还记得我们的日本之旅吗？ 当时，甚至到今天，我还是相信你不是在骗一个8岁的小女孩。 我觉得如果你可以（带我去），你会的。 好吧，就看几时可以吧！ ：）

Aren't you glad today isn't Monday? I'm fine actually because I seldom have Monday blues. Strange but true. I guess it's because I'm sleepy every morning, ha. And Mondays zoom by most of the time. Anyway, how was your long weekend? My Friday ended with a search-for-otahs fenzy but thanks to internet & facebook, it was settled the very next day. Amazing how I can find solutions on facebook nowadays. Saturday was spent slacking and ended with an arguement over "why do we not have much to talk about?" Question was never really answered. I guess that's marriage... Things change. Period. Sunday was a feasting day and as usual, with Uncle Vic around, you can always have some good laughs. Food & laughter. Best combination doncha think? Monday was an overdue bowling session and surprisingly, I did quite well - 160ish, 120/30ish, 150ish. But today, my right arm is aching like mad. See, lack of exercise again. So, there, my rather uneventful long weeke...

How much can you handle? As much as we always demand honesty, not everyone can handle it well. "Do I look fat in this, honey?" "Hmm... a little..." "WHAT?!!! @#$%@#^%!!!!" "Do I look fat in this, honey?" "Of course not! You look absolutely fabulous!" Yes, since young, we were told not to lie. And if you do, your nose will grow like pinocchio's. Except we know that's not true. And that's why we still lie. Likewise for every other thing that has an excuse, 'white lie' is designed to be the excuse for the art of lying. Telling a white lie is not as sinful as telling a lie. Beacuse I meant well. But who is to determine when a lie is white and when it is not? Of course, there are some who choose to be in denial, who will always choose lie over truth. But I can't be like that. I'd rather you throw your brutal honesty in my face than keep me in the dark. Because it's not easy to lie to me and I can't stand s...

Nothing much. Just want to remind everyone we have 4 more months to 2011. Anyway Mr. Grumpy and I had a movie date yesterday. 1210pm Despicable Me 2pm Lunch 320pm Inception 6pm Dinner 8pm Durian pudding (for me). Which SUX! My thoughts about the movies... Despicable Me Do children really complete your life? Do they really make you happy and can they really make even the toughest, meanest person's heart melt? If yes, then why is that we can't stand it when they whine and scream? If yes, why is it that we get all frustrated when they don't know their school work? If yes, why do I see some parents who behave like the kids don't belong to them? And I don't know if I want to have kids only because it seems 'right' once you're married and that only they, complete a marriage. Or it's because the other half loves and wants them. Except I'm not sure if he really knows what's in it for him. Sometimes I really don't know what I'm afraid of... Oh...
